How to Move WordPress To a New Server

Today I had the task of moving an existing WordPress Site from one hosts server to another. For a basic blog, this isn’t much of a big deal at all — but the particular site has a very large database, multiple plugins and a ton of customizations done to it that made the prospect of relocating it a horrifying thought!

I was really happy to have found a great blog post on the matter at WordPress Me! that gives clear and easy to follow step-by-step instructions on how this can be done with minimal headaches!

Any of you who work with WordPress should bookmark this post, it is solid gold!!! A big thanks to Shayne, who wrote the post!
